my opinion would be..

black car or magnetic gray: tinted LED taillights.

your silver car: the first redout LED taillights.

As njerald has stated, its already been posted. Search for "led taillight". If you look at peoples signatures, they also tell you what mod they have. Off the top of my head

njerald and lammydi has #1 on silver
Tobeit has #3 on black
dcemureviews has #3 on mag grey

#2 and #3 is the same ones. For whatever reason, the tint is darker. All are made by Eagle Eyes. If you look at my "as promised..." thread or even my cardomain, you'll see the smoked on mag grey

Since you have silver, Go with either #1 or #4. You only put smoked version if you have a dark colored car. If you have a light colored car, get stock looking or the clear.

My first choice will be the 1st one (red-out).

Are these easy to install?

These are Plug and Play, right?

Any fogging issues so far?

I said get the #1 then put on Bluebatmoblile overlay vinyl to have it look just like mine.

Depends how you want to install it. If you dont remove or loosen the bumper, it will be harder because you have to put some force into breaking the clip on the OEM light housing. (discussed in led taillight thread). If you loosen the bumper, it will make removal and installation easier. There are fitment issues but not a big issues. The trunk lights took me awhile. I ended up breaking clips while others had a hard time and was able to do it.

For me, I had to shave down some plastic (when you open trunk, you have that beige piece on the side). Some didnt. Again, if you read the led taillight thread, people post their experience on installing.

If you want to know how to remove bumper, I think it was njerald or wireless who posted a mini-DIY. You can also refer to service manual.

As I mentioned in the led taillight thread, I had water go in at the top of the housing and it evaporated due to the weather. No fogging issues and no one has complained about fogging.

#2/#3 would be best IMO, if they are different tints, I would go with the lighter #3.

#2 and #3 are the same lights. Whoever took pictures, dont know how to take pictures. They took it with low light. The first and second image is of same darkness. One is lit and the other isnt. For the second image, they used the flash on the camera or a spot light. First image is just a mirror image of the other light. I can do the same with the image from my car with a bit of photoshopping.




The auctions even say they are smoked and Eagle Eyes only made 3 versions (stock, smoked, clear). Price of lights have dropped $10-20
